Finally............Hazel Floral Pattern

            Scio Pottery HAZEL Floral Pattern
After 30 years of collecting it I finally found out the name...Can you just believe it.. I had always wondered what or if it had a name. It only show USA on the bottom of most pieces... and through surfing and looking on the internet I finally found it out..I had always referred to them as my Granny dishes...Mom claimed they were given out at the movies back in her time...(1935 up)
 It has been a favorite pattern of mind for years...and I mean years about 30 years ago I started collecting these. maybe longer my son is almost 35.. I have almost all of the set....well at least what I know of it..but never have I owned or seen the sugar bowl..I have two creamers each being different. One I recently found at the Goodwill store for $1.99... I know there are two patterns of these as well the dishes, talking about the way the pattern is place on the dishes...
 I think it's the most sweetest pattern...
 recently I found a set of six dishes at the tea house but square and a pink edging... and of course I purchased them.. I always have used them with blue glass.. I thought pink would be fun as well..
 A bit of information: So other than Mom saying they were given out at the movie houses..I found this info,These beautiful dishes was originally sold at F.W. Woolworths, Kresges, and Ben Franklin stores. Pink Roses, blue and yellow floral bouquet with gold trim, scalloped edges. It is unmarked except for the USA stamp. It was sold during 1935 - 1955
The piece that I'm lacking in is the darling sugar bowl I have never seen one till I started surfing for the pattern...and they are indeed very rare items...the few that I did find were sold already...
 Isn't it just tooo cute...I'm so sad I really want this piece to complete my set...I have found a couple on a replacement site, but they want $55.00 each...it's my only hope... but I'm thinking wow $55.00 dollars hummmmmm... but lol I just might break down and buy one I don't want to lose out... If I take a chance and wait I 'm might not ever find another they seem to be very rare...
Some of my collection
Just need that sugar bowl...
 Well I hope that you have enjoyed my little bit of information, I know I'm very happy that I finally found it out after all these years..
Wishing you a enchanting weekend.  I'm heading off for home now probably won't be back till Monday or something like that..
See you soon.
With Love Janice

The information we can find on the Internet! The roses on the china are pretty, imagine receiving dishes when going to the show today? I think if it was me, I'd treat myself to the sugar bowl while you can still get one.

Your china is just beautiful. WOW hearing about dishes being given away at the movies I think I would visit the movies way more often. I will have to be on the look out for you.

Janice, that is a really pretty pattern! And I love the way you have mixed it with the green glass dishes. Hope you find your sugar bowl soon.

Beautiful and so good you could find the name! I have spent hours at times trying to find names to the patterns! I know $55 sounds like a lot, but usually if it is from Replacements Ltd. it has no chips and it has it's lid, usually very hard to find with sugar bowls. If it is the only piece you need to complete the set, this money is a very good investment. It would bring a higher value to the set as well, if you should ever want to sell it. Do you show off all of your china on shelves?
